Tell Indian citizens which government schemes they're owed

An agent built on Sanity queries real content to tell people in India which government schemes they are entitled to.

Tell Indian citizens which government schemes they're owed preview
What They Did
The agent runs on Inception's Mercury via the Vercel AI SDK and reaches a Sanity Context MCP endpoint in GROQ mode. It extracts the person's details, reads the schema, and makes one GROQ query for schemes with typed eligibility rules. It then checks every exclusion rule. A second pass formats cards as JSON, and the route attaches the apply and source URLs from the dataset.
How It Went
Works in English and Kannada with follow-ups. The dataset has 125 schemes, but only 10 flagships have structured rules (33 rules, 11 exclusions). A run takes 30 to 45 seconds. The author did not verify every rule line by line.
Worth Knowing
The first Knowledge Base route burned 20 tool calls without answering. Switching to GROQ mode fixed it, but it needs a deployed Studio.
